My wife had an appointment at
Moffitt Hospital this morning. I went with her. I read my Nook Book while she got the first part
of her appointment done, a bone density check. I got sleepy while reading my
Nook. It became read a while, doze off, wake up, read a while, doze off … etc.
At one point I kind of woke
up and saw a stroller with two small dogs in front of me. A man was talking to a woman, who
sat in a chair to my left. The man talked about Yorkies, which, apparently, the
little dogs were. The woman talked about pugs and that she had a standard
poodle. I thought that was interesting, since my wife and I have a standard
poodle. I decided that when Yorkie Man left, I would talk to the woman about
standard poodles. I dozed off again.
A time later, I heard my wife
ask, “Are you awake?” I was. She said the second part of her appointment was at
1:15. The now time was 11:25. She asked if I wanted to get lunch at the
sandwich shop on first floor. I said, “That sounds good.” Then I said, “You
missed the man with the Yorkies.” I said that the woman he was talking to had a
standard poodle.
My
wife got that wife-patient look on her face and the smile that goes with the
look. She said, “You were sound asleep, and I didn’t want to wake you up.”
Okay, I thought. Then: "Oh." Then: "I was going to talk to the other woman about standard poodles."
